Magen is a professional training and instruction company for rescue from urban destruction.
The company was founded by Eran Magen, Lt. Col. (Res.), Former Deputy Commander of the National search and rescue Unit in the Home Front Command, who gained practical experience in the field of rescue from urban destruction of more than 25 years.
Magen Ltd. launches volunteer expeditions to disaster and earthquake sites around the world. Recently, the company's instructors and managers participated and rescued victims with considerable success in the recent earthquakes in Nepal, Italy, and Mexico last year.
In its training courses, Magen Ltd. delivers its unique operational approach, which was developed based on the experience accumulated over the years and recently adopted by the State of Israel in the form of the "Civil Defense" project - a project that trains all 10-graders in Israel in rescue operations from urban destruction. Magen Ltd. plays a vital role in this project and has trained about 60,000 10-graders in more than 2000 courses and 300 schools throughout Israel.
Magen Ltd. offices are located in the Beit Yanai area, Israel, close to a training facility of rescue from destruction, which stretches over several acres and includes a lot of equipment, allowing training of more than ten groups at the same time.
